Mad Cat The Quest Compound was unusually quite this early spring morning. Rage was currently out of the picture and Surd still hadn’t recovered from his last encounter with Jessie. The Zin twins had been inactive lately and no one else had threatened the world in at least two months. Dr. Quest and Race were currently in Paris attending a conference on ancient artifacts, leaving the Quest trio at home. Unfortunately the trio of teens were beyond bored; or at least Jessie and Jonny were. At times like this, when everything was quiet Hadji would catch up on his reading or meditate. Now Hadji was meditating on his mat in the study while Jessie was walking along the beach….hoping something exciting would pop out at any moment. Jonny, on the other hand, was sitting in is room staring at the ceiling with Bandit on his stomach. "I am bored…bored…bored…bored." He soon began to chant the single world ‘bored’ to every song he knew. He soon sat up and looked around his room until his eyes fell upon the ‘Mysteries of Ancient Greece’ book his father had insisted he read. "I bet I could have some real fun if I ….." He was out the door before the sentence was completed running for the lighthouse….or at least to QuestWorld. He soon logged onto the QuestWorld system (without anyone monitoring him) and began searching for the Rachel program. "Iris. Find File: Rachel" Jonny demanded as he stood in the computer’s mainframe. "File Found." The computer responded. "Open File: Rachel. Open date 1500 BC. Location: Greece." Jonny quickly looked around to make sure no one else was in QuestWorld. "Opening Time and Location……Time and Location Opened. Enter to activate…Have a nice day." Iris responded. Jonny quickly made a portal device appear in his hand so he could return when necessary. As soon as the computer finished talking he was through the portal and landing on soft spot of rich green grass. The scene before him was like a dream or a painting, nothing was out of place. As he looked around he saw rolling hills of lush green grass with a forest of trees to one side and a small dirt road to the other. As his gaze turned upward he the sky was a clear blue with a few clouds every now and then. "Life before pollution" he muttered as he stood up. "Now for some fun." As he said this he heard two voices coming from behind him and he quickly went toward the voices and as he turned around one of the trees he ran into another young man. He was dressed in a purple, blue, brown vest like shirt and he was wear …. leather pants? *talk about uncomfortable* Jonny thought to himself. He had semi-long curly blonde hair with light blue eyes; he was also about the size of Jonny. "Hey watch it." the young man said as his friend helped him up. "Oh, I’m sorry I just heard voices and wasn’t watching where I was going." Jonny replied as he himself got up. "So where are you from stranger?" the other one asked. "Um, I’m from a …. from somewhere you probably haven’t heard of." "Try us." The first young man said. "It’s a city called Rockport." Jonny replied. "Hm. You’re right never heard of it. By the way, I’m Hercules and this is my accident prone friend Iolaus." He said putting his hand forward. The one speaking had brownish-blonde hair that barely touched his ears and he was wearing a light brown leather sleeveless shirt and dark brown leather pants *do I sense a leather fashion?* "Hi I’m Jonny." "So where are you off to ….Jonny?" Iolaus asked. "Where ever. I’m new around here." He said looking down. The two boys glanced at each other and nodded. "Well why don’t you come with us and stay at the academy for a while…Cheiron, our teacher, won’t mind." Hercules replied as he led the now trio off to the academy. "Are you sure? I mean I would hate to impose." Jonny quickly said. "Oh sure we’re always bringing people in." Iolaus quickly said. So the trio carried on to the dirt road and then to Cheiron’s Academy. ********************************** Any comments, questions, anything e-mail me teeling1@yahoo.com The next part will be out soon....hopefully ^_^ == Have a rose: @>----(>>>>><)(in a vase) Catherine a.k.a Mad Cat One Official Fic Commentor Guardian Angel of Iolous's sense of honor ------------------------------------------------------------------------ We have a new web site! http://www.onelist.com Onelist: The leading provider of free email community services
